Dr. Jonah Asiegbu, medical doctor and CEO, First Medtrade said: “With healthcare facilities stretched due to Covid-19, there is an even greater need for specialised medical consumables. Hospitals in Nigeria are largely dependent on a long distribution chain of resellers and agents for foreign-made medical consumables.
This factor affects the market in two critical ways, high retail prices and scarcity of commodities. We are tackling these challenges by providing a single online platform where hospitals can find and purchase a range of medical consumables from accredited manufacturers and wholesalers conveniently.”
In order to deliver this solution, First Medtrade has formed strategic partnerships with reputable manufacturers of medical consumables around the globe such as Hidemar, Hepamedikal, Stiegelmeyer, Meber, Ropimex, Fortune Medical, Novamed etc. Hospitals simply visit the website, submit their request, receive a quote, make payment and have their medical consumables delivered to a preferred location.
